I just dist-upgraded from woody->testing tonight. After the upgrade, I tried to test things out to ensure nothing was broken, and when I got to testing sound, tried to play an ogg file with freeamp - which just didn't work right. I also could not get ogg123 to work, since it demanded libvorbisfile

Modules weirdness after upgrade to testing...

2002-12-21 Thread Neal Lippman
Tonight, I took the plunge and upgraded woody->testing, so that I could get X4.2.1 and try out my new ATI 7500. Anyway, there are a few weird things that I could use some help on; this post relates to modules. I did the upgrade by changing all occurrences of "stable" to "testing" in /etc/apt/sourc

Dear all - I am in a bit of a panic. Have just upgraded Apache from Potato to testing (by means of apt-get install php4). The upgrade process did not give me any errors, but after 'apacheconfig', Apache fails to restart with: Syntax error on line 75 of /etc/apache/access.conf: Invalid command

Does your sources.list include non-us? The crypto stuff (including libssl) is hosted on server outside of the US for legal reasons. So, you may need to add a line like this: deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US unstable/non-US main contrib non-free Nathan On Sunday 19 August 2001 09:57 p
